Chapter 39: The Same Embroidery

These bugs wriggle and make people feel hairy.

This is a Gu worm? I thought reflexively. The so-called Gu worms, except for being more fat, are not much different from ordinary insects!

Xiaoqing and the others scattered the stamens they picked into the dustpan, and suddenly there was a faint fragrance of flowers.

"It smells so good! What kind of flower is this? ”

I reached out and wanted to grab a handful in the basket.

"What are you doing!"

The girl next to Xiaoqing hurriedly shrank the basket and let me catch it empty.

Xiaobi said lightly: "It's okay! My master has already applied that kind of aromatherapy all over his body......"

Xiaoqing shook his right hand and said:

"This flower is poisonous! Especially the stamens, if you touch them, you will be killed immediately. Didn't you see that we were all wearing lace gloves! ”

I grinned sheepishly and pulled my hands behind my back.

The stamens sprinkled on it were eaten in an instant.

I said in my heart: These Gu worms eat the stamens with high poison, aren't they poisoned even more poisonous?

"There are at least tens of thousands of Gu worms here, right? Coupled with those in Mom's house, isn't it...... At least...... At least hundreds of thousands? So much! Do you need it? ”

Xiao Bi pulled my sleeve and whispered, "In front of my mother, you can't say such things!" Otherwise you will be punished! ”

I smiled and nodded, but I didn't pay much attention to it.

Xiao Qing finished scattering the stamens in the basket, came to me, and said to me: "These are not the final Gu worms you see, don't look at the current ones, by the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, there will be seven or eight thousand left......

Well? I didn't understand, there are hundreds of thousands of them today, why are there only a few thousand left tomorrow? Where did the rest go? It's not going to be pickled like pickles, is it?

Xiaoqing didn't explain again, but walked out with a smile with her sisters.

"Lord...... Xiao Zhen, let's go too! ”

Xiaobi and I also went out of this temple.

When I went out, I was still muttering in my heart: This ancient temple is exactly the same as the western suburbs of the old temple village! It can't be built by the same people! And they all have a strange old clock, which can't be a coincidence......

When I thought of Laomiao Village, I also thought of Li Xiaobai and them, and I was faintly worried.

"Xiaobi! I think...... I want to see Chen Laosan and their ......"

It's weird and weird, so I don't know if I'll see them until I'm done.

"Absolutely! Mom said that as long as it ...... As long as you don't touch us before the full moon, anything else is fine. ”

After saying that, she lowered her head with a slight flush.

I suspect that the old women in the village must have "educated" her in this regard, so Xiaobi and Xiaoqing, the young virgins, probably know what to do with me in a few days.

Along the half-slope path, we came to a gray house.

Xiaobi stopped at the door of the house, pointed inside, and said, "Let's go in and see!" They're in there! ”

The room was extremely dark, and with my extraordinary eyesight, I could still see Li Xiaobai and the three of them sitting upright at a glance.

"Little bad? How's it going? ”

I whispered.

Who knew that the three of them were still sitting like that, as if they hadn't seen or heard me come in.

I shouted Chen Laosan again, but they still didn't respond, and then I felt that something was not quite right!

When I walked up to the three of them, I saw that they were all staring blankly ahead, and they did not react to my arrival in the slightest.

I stretched out my hand and shook it in front of Li Xiaobai's eyes, and then shook it in front of Chen Laosan, and the eyes of the two of them didn't blink.

No way! It wouldn't be stupid, would it? I exclaimed.

Suddenly I thought of what my mother said: "Give them a specially prepared dish......

Could it be that the meal I ate at noon today was poisonous - no! It should be a Gu.

Gu thing, I didn't know about Gu at the time, and it wasn't until a few days later that I really saw the power of Gu.

I was about to use some method to wake up the three of them, when I heard Xiao Bi outside the house shouting, "This is Heartless Gu!" This was the case before the Gu was solved, but it was not harmful to the human body. ”

Before I knew it, it was already dusk, and everyone gathered in that hall to eat again, and there were always people who just ate silently, including Chen Laosan and them, but until I left, I didn't see my mother.

After eating, Xiaobi reminded me that it was best not to run around after dark, because there are many poisonous insects in this place......

When she arrived at Lang's room, Xiaobi lit two white candles the thickness of an adult's arm, and suddenly the room was as bright as day.

"Go back!"

I saw that it was completely dark outside, so I called Xiaobi and told her to go back and rest.

Xiaobi shook her head, lowered her head and whispered, "I can't leave you for a single step these days...... This is specially explained by my mother. ”

When I heard this, I was anxious and hurriedly said, "But there is only one bed here!" You...... Where do you sleep? ”

Xiaobi didn't seem to understand, glanced at the big bed, and whispered, "This bed is big enough!" If...... If the host is not willing to sleep with me, I can stay in the ......"

By the end of the day, the sound was too small to hear.

I was born soft-hearted, and when I saw Xiao Bi Chuchu's moving appearance, I immediately felt very uncomfortable.

"Alright! All right! If you want to sleep here, just stay! ”

I hurriedly said.

Hearing me say this, Xiaobi immediately burst into tears and smiled, her face full of shyness.

That night, Xiaobi and I lay on the bed on one side.

I don't know what's going on, but as soon as I stepped into this room, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep in bed for a long time.

"Are you asleep? Bio"

"No! If you don't sleep, I can't sleep. ”

Xiaobi said in a sweet voice.

"Then let's talk for a while!" I asked.

"Good! What do you want to talk about? Xiaobi replied.

"I've always thought this room was weird, it seemed to have its own refreshing function!"

"Oh! It's because there's a lover's flower here, and it's called the Matchmaker of Flowers......"

"And such flowers! Why do you put so many flowers here? "I didn't react for a moment.

"You...... You're stupid! Don't...... Have you forgotten what this house is? Xiaobi's voice was a little anxious, and the words had already come out, feeling very rude, and she felt very embarrassed.

Is there a room here? I immediately guessed what the flower was doing, and I blushed myself.

The two never spoke again that night.

When I woke up the next day, it was already dawn, and when I opened my eyes, I was startled, and Xiaobi was staring at me with apricot eyes.

"You...... What do you want? ”

I reflexively shouted.

Xiaobi didn't expect me to open my eyes suddenly, so I hurriedly shrank back in shame.

"It's nothing, it's just up to you...... The way I slept was cute! ”

With that, Xiaobi got out of bed.

I was a little embarrassed, so I was ready to roll over and get out of bed.

As soon as he turned around, his eyes were just fixed on the pillow.

It's not unusual to have a red pillow towel on top of the pillow, but when I saw the pattern on it, I was stunned.

This pattern is all too familiar to me, it is the pattern of the piece of cloth that was wrapped around me when my adoptive father picked me up.

Now I know that these dark pictures that resemble the shape of waves are the peaks of Helan Mountain, and there is also half a poem on them, "Stepping through the lack of Helan Mountain".

At that moment, several thoughts flashed through my mind, could this place really have something to do with my background?

After being stunned for a few seconds, I hurriedly asked Xiaobi:

"Who embroidered the pattern on this pillow towel?"

Xiaobi walked over in a few steps, glanced at it, and shook her head.

"We can't usually come into this place, everything in this house is arranged by my mother herself, she should know!"

I could tell that Bibi didn't understand why I was asking, but she didn't ask me why.

I wanted to ask my mother when I was eating, but my life experience has been bothering me for more than ten years, and the more I think about it, the more I can't hold it back, so I asked Xiaobi to take me to find my mother.

Before leaving, I pulled the cloth that had wrapped me out of my bag and stuffed it into my pocket.

I originally thought that my mother would rest in another place, but who knew that Xiaobi still led me to the black house.

"Xiaobi, is Mom here so early?"

"She's been there!" On the contrary, Xiaobi thought that I was asking very strangely.

"She's not coming home at night, is she? This...... There are no beds here! ”

I continued to ask.

"This is Mom's house, she's here at night."

I still don't understand, but I'm already at the door.

"Mom! The host wants to ask you something! ”

Xiaobi stood respectfully on the side of the door, clasped her hands together, and shouted with her head down.

"Oh! Let him in! ”

A hoarse voice came from the room, and it was Mom who spoke.

When I entered the room, I saw her sitting upright in the huge black chair as usual.

I thought to myself: she won't sit like this all night! How uncomfortable it is! It seems that the lord of a high-ranking village is not easy to do!

"Mom, I want to know who embroidered the pattern on this pillow towel!"

"This pattern? Is there something wrong with this pattern? ”

Mom asked me suspiciously.

I immediately pulled the cloth out of my pocket and showed it to my mother.

When my mother saw this cloth, she trembled, and the person immediately stood up.

"This cloth you are...... Where did you get that? ”

Mom shouted in a trembling voice, and the whole person kept trembling.

I didn't expect my mother to react so much when she saw this cloth, and I didn't know how to answer her for a while.

"You...... Say it quickly! Where did you get this cloth from? If you don't tell the truth, I'll let you ...... Makes you ......"

Mom's voice had changed, and with my long hearing, I could hear that she was breathing very rapidly.

"This cloth has been in my house for more than ten years, and my adoptive father said that when he picked me up, he wrapped this cloth around him......"

Before I could finish my sentence, my mother had already staggered over, snatched the cloth from my hand, looked at it anyway, and then let out a whimper.

It was a strange sound, like the sound of the leaves blowing in the night wind, but my gut told me it was my mother crying.

After crying for a few minutes, my mother looked up at me and asked me in a very puzzled voice, "Is this the cloth wrapped around you?" You...... How old are you this year! ”

I didn't understand why my mother reacted so violently, but I was very excited to see her appearance, and I didn't dare to slack off, so I immediately replied:

"I was born on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, of course...... This birthday was engraved on my back when my adoptive father picked me up......"

"The seventh day of the seventh month? Is it really the seventh day of the seventh month? ”

Mom trembled again, and grabbed me all at once.

"Yes! Maybe my real parents carved it! ”

Before I could finish my sentence, my mother suddenly ripped off my clothes and pulled me around.
